FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the field of touch input technologies and more particularly to a touch panel.

BACKGROUND

Nowadays, personal digital assistants (PDA), mobile phones, notebook computers, tablet PCs and other portable electronic products are commonly used in modern life. Since these electronic products need to be thinner and lighter, the traditional input devices, such as keyboards or mice have to be replaced with other input devices. In addition, the needs for tablet PCs has greatly increased, hence the touch panel technology has became one of the key components in electronic products. Besides, the organic light emitting display (OLED) has some advantages such as thinning, low weight, low power consumption, high brightness, high response speed, so it also commonly used in mobile electronic devices.

In the technology of combining the touch panel and the OLED, usually, the touch panel and the OLED are formed separately in individual processes, and then combined with each other. The OLED provides the function for displaying, and the touch panel provides the function for interacting with the user. The position data detected by the touch panel and displaying data of the OLED are connected to each other and then calculated through the outside traces and the operation systems. Therefore the touch panel becomes heavy and thick, and is hardly able to achieve the lightened and thinned requirements. Besides, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is usually used as the substrate of a large-size touch panel, but some common materials for forming the electrodes such as indium tin oxide (ITO) are fragile and not suitable for forming on the flexible PET film. In addition, some issues such as PET substrate can't endure high temperatures, or the conductivity of the ITO electrode can't satisfy the rapid scanning requirements of the large-size touch panel still need to be resolved.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the touch panel according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, a touch panel 1 comprises a lower substrate 10 and an upper substrate 20. Between the lower substrate 10 and the upper substrate 20, an organic light emitting component 30 and a nano silver sensing layer 40 are disposed on the organic light emitting component 30. The lower substrate 10 provides the function for loading the organic light emitting component 30. The upper substrate 20 provides the interactive interface with the user, and the upper substrate 20 further packages and protects the organic light emitting component 30 and the nano silver sensing layer 40. With the organic light emitting component 30 such as an organic light emitting display (OLED), the structure and the principle of OLED are well known to persons of ordinary skills in the art and the details will be omitted for brevity.

In this embodiment, a transparent adhesion layer is disposed between the organic light emitting component 30 and the nano silver sensing layer 40. The transparent adhesion layer covers the organic light emitting component 30, isolates the organic light emitting component 30 from contacting oxygen and humidity, and avoids decreasing the expectancy of the organic light emitting component 30 caused by moisture or oxidation, so the transparent adhesion layer can protect and package the organic light emitting component 30, but this is done without influencing the display of the organic light emitting component 30. A sealant 34 is disposed within the periphery region of the lower substrate 10, surrounding the transparent adhesion layer and the nano silver sensing layer 40, and attaching the lower substrate 10 and the upper substrate 20 to each other, to avoid the exudation of the transparent adhesion layer and further protect and package the organic light emitting component 30.

The first electrodes 441 and the second electrodes 481 are crossed to each other.

The material of the first insulating layer 42 and the second insulating layer 46 is selected from a group consisting of epoxy, modified epoxy, polyester, acrylic, fluorocarbon polymers, polyphenylene oxide, polyimide, phenolic resins, polysulfones, silicone-polymer resin, BT resin, cyanate poly polyethylene, polycarbonate resin, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, liquid crystal polymers, polyamides, nylon 6, copolymerized formaldehyde, polyphenylene sulfide and cyclic olefin copolymer. The materials mentioned above are transparent and flexible, suitable for using as the material for forming a large size and flexible touch panel. Besides, the first insulating layer 42 and the second insulating layer 46 are lighter and thinner than glass, so the weight and the thickness of the touch panel can be decreased effectively. The first nano silver electrode layer 44 and the second nano silver electrode layer 48 have great transmittance, flexibility and conductivity, thereby achieving the demands for having high transmittance in touch panel products, and can be formed on the flexible first insulating layer 42 and the flexible second insulating layer 46 easily, so as to achieve the demands for rapid scanning frequency in a large-size touch panel. In the present invention, the conductivity of the first nano silver electrode layer 44 and the second nano silver electrode layer 48 can be adjusted by controlling the concentration of the nano silver liquid during the manufacturing process. In other words, the first nano silver electrode layer 44 and the second nano silver electrode layer 48 with lower resistance can be formed through increasing the concentration of the nano silver liquid. The nano silver (including first nano silver electrode layer 44 and the second nano silver electrode layer 48) can be formed on the first insulating layer 42 and the second insulating layer 46 respectively through a sputtering, a printing or a lithography etching process.

It is worth noting that first protection layer 52 and the second protection layer 54 mentioned above can be a single layer structure or a multiple layer structure. In addition, the embodiment further comprises a transparent adhesion layer 58 disposed between the first protection layer 52 and the second insulating layer 46, to attach them to each other. The first preferred embodiment of the present invention combines the nano silver sensing layer 40 and the organic light emitting component 30 into a touch panel, to meet the market requirements for a lightened and thinned touch panel. On the other hand, nano silver is used to replace conventional ITO to form the electrode. Since the flexibility of the nano silver is better than the flexibility of friable ITO, the first nano silver electrode layer 44 and the second nano silver electrode layer 48 can be easily crossed stacked on flexible substrate (such as PET), besides, the weight of touch panel can be decreased too. In addition, since the nano silver has low resistance, it can achieve the demands for rapid scanning in a large-size product.
